Sorry, that was a wrong cut-paste from a different terminal window. I do have numpy 1.3.0 (system numpy). I have installed numpy 1.8.0 separately in a subdirectory under my home directory. The output from The correct output is: I just re-tested everything and the undefined symbol error still exists in the environment with numpy 1.8.0 and matplotlib 1.3.1.

Interesting. It's nice to have a "solution", but I'm not sure why the timestamps are funny in the first place... |

@tacaswell I can't reproduce the problem with the release candidate following @gandalf013 instructions. It's been so long that I can't remember how I was doing it before, but I started a virtualenv on the same machine as I reported the problem before. and these commands didn't give me an error. So that looks good to me. |

@flamingbear Thanks for checking! Closing this. If anyone can still reproduce this please ping to have it re-opened. |

_backend_agg.sois referring toMPL_matplotlib__path_ARRAY_API. On a more modern system (Linux Mint 13), the output from the above command is:I built matplotlib with the following:
